22 SEC hot topics Andrea Selvaraja PwC 22
23 SEC Hot Topics Comment Letters What are they? Comment letter process What do or can they lead to? Common comments: Methods and assumptions Change in estimates (prior period development) why did amounts change, and why in the current period and not in a prior period Variability more insight on how sensitive the reserve amounts are to changes in key assumptions Timing 23
24 SEC Hot Topics Illustrative Comment #1 Methods & Assumptions Expand your disclosure describing methods used to determine your reserve for unpaid losses and loss adjustment expense as follows. i. Explain the strengths and weaknesses of each method. ii. Explain the factors that you consider in selecting one method over another method. iii. Discuss and quantify the impact of changes in method for each period presented. Companies have expanded disclosures to provide much more information on the basics of actuarial reserving 24
25 SEC Hot Topics Illustrative Comment #2 Changes in Estimates Please provide a detailed discussion addressing the specific reasons for the change in estimate of claims occurring in prior years, as the current explanation of such changes solely attributes them to lines of business, and does not provide insight into the underlying causes for the changes. Further, explaining developments as due to lower than expected reported loss activity or favorable claim development does not appear to be sufficiently informative. Company reactions have included: More description accident years, identification of specific claims or adverse/favorable rulings 25
26 SEC Hot Topics Illustrative Comment #3 Assumptions Please identify and describe those key assumptions such as frequency and severity that materially affect the estimate of the reserve for loss and loss adjustment expenses. In addition, Explicitly identify and discuss key assumptions as of latest balance sheet date that are premised on future emergence that are inconsistent with historical loss reserve development patterns and explain why these assumptions are now appropriate given the inconsistency identified. 26
27 SEC Hot Topics Illustrative Comment #4 Management Adjustments Describe management s policy, if any, for adjusting the liability for unpaid losses and LAE to an amount that is different than the amount determined by its actuaries. - If such a policy exists, describe the method used by management to determine the adjustment and the extent to which it relies on objective versus subjective determinations. Such adjustments may include, but not be limited to, an incremental provision, a reduction in the liability, or a reversal of a previously recorded adjustment. - When such adjustments or reversals are made, include MD&A disclosure that identifies the amount of the adjustment or reversal, the method used by management to determine it, and the specific underlying reasons that explain why management believes the adjustment or reversal is necessary. 27
28 SEC Hot Topics Illustrative Comment #5 Reserve Variability In order to show investors the potential variability in the most recent estimate of your loss reserve, quantify and present preferably in a tabular format the impact that reasonably likely changes in the key assumptions identified may have on reported results, financial position and liquidity. Explain why management believes that scenarios quantified as reasonably likely. Company reactions have included: Providing ranges, or Identifying several assumptions and showing the amount of change to reserves from changes in the assumption, with an added explanation as to why the different scenarios are reasonably likely 28
29 SEC Hot Topics Illustrative Comment #6 Timing of Adjustments You disclose that "Given the high degree of statistical uncertainty, and potential volatility, it would be unusual to adjust reserves on the basis of one, or even several, quarters of loss development activity. As a result, unless the incurred loss activity in any one quarter is of such significance that management is able to quantify the impact on the ultimate liability for loss and LAE, reductions or increases in loss and LAE liabilities are carried out in the fourth quarter based on the annual reserve review described above. Your financial data shows that the majority of your total net reductions in ultimate loss and LAE liabilities for the year were recorded in the fourth quarter in each of the past three years and that the amount of these reductions has been significant. Please identify for us the nature and extent of a) new events that occurred or b) additional experience/information obtained since the previous quarterly reviews that led to these changes in estimate in the fourth quarter. Explain why recognition in earlier quarters was not required and how recording adjustments only in the fourth quarter complies with GAAP for interim financial reporting. 29
